Post-Katrina: Abandoned City Park

95% of the 1,300 acre City Park in New Orleans was under water after Hurricane Katrina. 5 years later, the majority of the park is still abandoned.

It's interesting how much different this place looks now in the winter.

This is in East NOLA right? When we were down there we were trying to find a way into this place. Great set, I wanna go back to NOLA and explore a lot more.

I've heard some rumors about some tunnels beneath the park somewhere... know if there's any truth to it? I didn't hear it from explorers, just random people.

Adventure is out there.

I don't know anything about this but that doesn't mean much. Do you know what type of tunnels? Utility, drainage, etc?

Unfortunately not, everything was fairly vague, and it was back when I first started exploring, so things like "getting details" apparently weren't instinctual. I'll have to figure out who told me and get some more info on it.
